What is the abbreviation of HSD on Vietnamese coffee packaging?

HSD on Vietnamese coffee packaging is the abbreviation of health and safety date, which means shelf life.

On some imported food packages, there will be the words HSD, usually followed by the date. The date indicated by HSD refers to the shelf life of food. The shelf life of the product is provided by the manufacturer, usually in English date notation, and the format is day/month/year. It needs to be finished before the marked date. During the warranty period, the manufacturer of the product is responsible for the quality of the product that meets the relevant standards or explicitly guaranteed quality conditions.

Extended data:

Shelf life is not the only criterion to identify whether food and other products have deteriorated. The reason for deterioration may be the premature deterioration of substances with changes in storage methods and environment. Therefore, food should be eaten as soon as possible before the expiration of the shelf life. The shelf life of opened food will be shortened, so use it as soon as possible to avoid the deterioration of product quality.

Prepackaged foods labels provided directly to consumers include food name, ingredient list, net content and specifications, name, address and contact information of producers and/or sellers, production date and shelf life, storage conditions, food production license number, product standard code number and other contents that need to be marked.
